Brought to Tears by The Artist is Present

From the tumblr Marina Abramović Made Me Cry:

"Portraits taken during the MoMA's exhibit of performance artist "Marina Abramović: The Artist Is Present". Abramović sits at a table in silence, and museum guests can sit across from her and stare.

Some people couldn't handle the heat."

​The criers range from sitting with Abramovic from 2 mins to 145 mins before the tears started. 

Included in the mix is Jemima Kirke who plays dreamy bohemian Jessa on Lena Dunham's hit HBO show "Girls".
